Melinda blowing kisses designed by Elisabeth Bell for Whiff of Joy Stamps was the perfect stamp for this special occassion card. I used a card size, which is quite untypical for me, but I had so much fun and really love how it came out, so I am sure I will be using it again. I coloured Melinda with Caran D'Ache Supracolor water soluble pens, a watertank brush and Twinkling H2Os. I set some highlights with a white gel pen and put some glitter on her wings (that's why I also want to enter my card to the Our Creative Corner Challenge with the theme "Bling on the Bling").

I used two different colours of my Stampin' Up pastels for the background (Barely Banana and So Saffron). I started on the inside with the lighter colour and afterwards sponged the edges with the darker one. This way it gives the impression as if there was a glow around Melinda.

This time I also decorated the inside of my card, although I don't do this often :) I did some sewing, used my Scor Pal for some lines, added a SU rubOn and a Making Memories Epoxy Shape foto corner... é voila :)

Katharina, this is a fabulous card. I love the size and ahape. Congratulations to you sister & fiancée! Thank you for your kind wishes for my son. Noah is doing much better now although we think that he may have asthma. If he has another episode like this it may well be the case. I am better rested and eager to catch up! Hugs Jeanette
